How is your life different than it would have been if you never received the transfer?
I don't know any new goals, my only goal was to build my own house. And support my children in school, now my children are in school, and my building project is ongoing due to the help of givedirectly. But unfortunately some of my money was stolen from my room by an unknown person.
In your opinion, what does GiveDirectly do well, and what does it not do well?
Givedirectly does well by enrolling my family and every house hold that was eligible. Our village has been beautify with so many new houses due to the support of the givedirectly. So in my opinion givedirectly has done very well. There is nothing that givedirectly is not doing well.
What did you spend your most recent transfer(s) on?
I purchased Zinc, and paid my children school fees. Unfortunately the rest of my second money was stolen from my room by an unknown person. But still hopping that with the rest of my transfer my project will be done.
